Ridgewood Nj, Council Candidate Ramon Hache further explains his statement regarding the effect high density housing on the Village schools and educational special needs programs .
“It seems some of your readers may have misinterpreted my comments regarding special needs children. The point I was trying to make is that this is a multi-factor model and we have to take all the factors into consideration. It’s the only way we can plan properly to ensure that we don’t strain our educational system and diminish the quality of both traditional and special needs programs. I think it’s wonderful that Ridgewood’s educational programs are highly sought after, particularly the special needs program.”
Candidate Hache comments caused some controversy and seemed to be misinterpreted in our view, https://theridgewoodblog.net/council-candidate-ramon-m-hache-shares-his-thoughts-on-the-proposed-high-density-housing/
Just the first of many times a candidate will have to watch his or her words carefully. People are watching…and misinterpreting sometimes.
I don’t believe anyone “misinterpreted” this candidate’s words. He is clearly someone that is NOT supportive of the over 1000 special needs families in the Ridgewood Public School system. He is trying to ‘back track’ on his thoughts when he realized the large mass of residents that he has insulted with incorrect statements. Shame on Mr. Hache ~ do your homework before making incendiary comments on a specific group of children that already encounter enough prejudice daily!
